You've got work to do, scribe a lot of work. Yes, majesty, but But majesty, nothing. You are a scribe and a scribe's job is to write down whatever the king says is that quite clear.

Time flies when you're having fun. I'm not having any fun. I can hardly stay awake. What was that? Um, I said I'm having fun too, but it's time to take a break. Very well, we'll rest for a short while, but only a short while. and get out of my throne if you don't mind. thrones are for kings, not scribes. thrones are for kings, not scribes. big deal. What was that? I said I sure could eat a big meal. are easily replaced, you know. Your cousin Boris would love to have have your job. No, he wouldn't either. He loves his job. He's a scribe for King. Never mention his name in my presence. What name? King. Oh, you said it again. Let me make a little note to myself. Never mention the name King. How you said it again one more time in your fire. but nothing. Never mention his name in my presence. I hate him. He he hates me. Why? What did I do? Not you, you Ninkompoo, King Mimus. Everything that Lucky duck touches turns into gold. Everything? Yes, everything. If he wants a golden chair, he simply touches a wooden one and it instantly turns into gold. Real gold? Of course, real gold. He has a special gift. It's called the golden touch. All he has to do is touch something, anything. and it turns into gold just like that. Ah, excuse me, majesty, I'm not so sure that's such a good gift. What in the world are you talking about? For your information, King. Lives in a castle made of solid gold. He simply touched the stone walls and they instantly turned into gold. Do you understand what I'm saying? Gold. But what if he wants to kiss his lovely wife or his beautiful daughter? will they turn into gold if he touches them too? Well, yes. I guess there's that one tiny little problem. But hey, we don't live in a perfect world. You must be very lonely. I I know I would be lonely if I couldn't hug my daughter. There are many things more important than gold, you know. Uh, majesty, here's the bread you ordered, and if I may say so, bread is more important than gold. If I may say so, bread is more important than gold. No, you may not say so. it's important only because it's food. Forgive me, majesty, but I think he means that you can eat bread, you cannot eat gold. Forgive me, majesty, but I I agree with the scribe. Very well. You keep your bread and I'll keep the gold I was going to pay for it. But majesty, I can. But bread is more important than gold, isn't it? Well yes, but I'm But what, Miller? Well, Majesty, I must have the gold to buy the the the wheat to make the bread. Ah, then gold is more important than bread. Majesty, you're confusing me. It's very simple, Miller. Would you rather have a loaf of bread or a bag of gold? A bag of gold, of course. Gold, of course. I rest my case. I just.

Well, I am very proud to say that I am not a greedy person. And I'm I'm sorry, Majesty. I didn't mean to offend you. I'll just take my bread and go sell it in the marketplace. Stop, Miller. Before you leave, you will admit that nothing in the entire world is as beautiful as gold. Majesty, I can't do that. There are many things in the world more beautiful than gold. Name three.
